The proliferation of technical fouls and players approaching the magic number of seven technicals has got to have sports fans worried.
For the first time in playoff history, the NBA may approach a finals championship in which players are either too timid to play their game or absent for having played hard and with conviction.
The suspension rule attached to the technical fouls is slowly and corrosively having an adverse effect on these playoffs.
Piss off a referee and you may eliminate your team from competing. It's all good and well to insist on good manners at the dinner table but to expect teams facing elimination to not show emotion is absurd.
The NBA is rotting from the head down.

Ye Newe Glory-torium
Here, dear readers, is the final resting place of all weary Knicks fans. Yes, here is where one comes when the Triangle refuses to have three sides, when biting one's lip from losing to win later is one loss too far,or when said fan simply hits 'rock' bottom. In short, "the ship be" eternally "sinking" here. Welcome aboard, rearrange the deck chairs as you please.
